"You don't think beauty exists in these places," said Bendiksen. "What a lack of respect for people in the slums. They spend so much time creating beauty, just as people in the western world spend time beautifying their houses."
Bendiksen said he wanted to get away from cliched images of poverty and to focus on how people created normalcy in their daily lives.
"It's important that the prints are as vivid as possible, as detailed as possible, because we're essentially printing life-size walls," he said. "We want people to enter these rooms and feel like they are virtually visiting the families."
The exhibition is modular and light weight so that it can be easily transported between venues and to be durable and weatherproof for interior and exterior display. Prints were produced using HP's Designjet LS65500 and LS25500 machines on HP Durable Frontlit Scrim Banner.
